According to Alex Kennedy of Hoopsworld, "several NBA teams have inquired about Eddy Curry."

This could just be lip service on behalf of Curry, as we've seen these reports come up repeatedly and have very little substance previously. The fact of the matter is Curry looked absolutely terrible when he played for Dallas earlier this season, and although he averaged a double-double in China, Shavlik Randolph also averaged a double-double this season and Tracy McGrady was putting up LeBron James-like numbers in the CBA. Needless to say, the competition isn't quite the same as it is stateside in the NBA. Mon, Mar 4, 2013 08:21:00 AM

Multiple NBA teams are interested in signing Eddy Curry, according to Hoopsworld.

Curry essentially lost his job to Troy Murphy in Dallas, so it's hard to imagine a team would require his services. He is also drawing interest from China, which seems like a more likely scenario. Tue, Nov 20, 2012 06:06:00 PM

This will clear the way for Troy Murphy's return to NBA action, but even though Dallas assistant Jim O'Brien is excited by the move, we're not expecting much out of Murphy this season. Fri, Nov 2, 2012 06:48:00 PM

The Mavericks will waive Eddy Curry to clear a roster spot for Troy Murphy.

There had been speculation the team could cut Dominique Jones, but the Mavs will move on from Curry after his two-game tenure with the team. He scored a total of nine points and grabbed four rebounds in 25 minutes of action.

Eddy Curry came off the bench for seven points and four rebounds in 17 minutes on Tuesday.

There were rumors he would start, but Brandan Wright got the nod in this one. Even when Curry was in his prime he didn't offer a lot of fantasy value, so we're not too excited about the fact he's back in action.

Eddy Curry will start at center for the Mavericks on opening night if Chris Kaman (calf) can't play.

Curry would be tasked with handling a frontcourt that includes Dwight Howard and Pau Gasol in the season opener with Kaman shelved, and the Mavs are already without Dirk Nowitzki (knee surgery) to begin the year. Dallas is wasting no time throwing Curry right into the fire.

Eddy Curry started at center just one day after joining the Mavs and had 11 points, seven rebounds and three blocks on Friday.

With Dirk Nowitzki and Chris Kaman injured, and Elton Brand getting the night off to rest, Curry gave the Mavs a glimpse of what he might still be capable of. While this could be a nice comeback story if he can keep it together and help the Mavs win games, we see no reason to own Curry unless you're in a 30-team league.

The Mavericks have landed center Eddy Curry off waivers and will now look to waive or trade Delonte West, who is suspended from the team again.

Chris Kaman (calf) is iffy for the opener and Dirk Nowitzki is out (knee surgery), so the Mavs could use another big man. West has worn out his welcome in Dallas and is about to be cut, and it really doesn't matter who Curry signs with -- he'll have no fantasy value.

Curry was surprisingly effective for the Spurs this preseason, and there was some thought that he'd make the team, but it wasn't to be. We expect him to resume searching for a spot at the end of an NBA bench.

The Spurs are deciding whether to keep Eddy Curry or former Bobcats F Derrick Brown with their final roster spot.

"Eddy lost 20 pounds to come to camp, and he’s played through being tired, which has always been a bugaboo for him in the past," said Gregg Popovich, who doesn't praise players without cause. "He’s worked very hard, and he’s done a lot of good things." Curry has been surprisingly good this preseason and seems likely to beat out Brown, Josh Powell and Wesley Witherspoon.

Eddy Curry looked good in 19 minutes off the Spurs bench on Sunday, making all five of his shots to finish with 10 points, three rebounds, two steals, two blocks and zero turnovers.

For once there's no punchline. Curry's ability to defend remains seriously in doubt, but he's a bulldozer in the low post and if there's one coach who can whip him into shape, it's Gregg Popovich. The Spurs have one roster spot remaining, and it's possible they'll keep Curry on board.

Eddy Curry not only started for the Spurs on Wednesday, but was effective, finishing with 11 points on 4-of-7 shooting and pulling down eight boards in 25 minutes.

Curry has never really been able to put it together and perhaps Gregg Popovich can get him in line. Obviously, Curry needs a lot more than 25 minutes of encouraging evidence to warrant a pick in fantasy drafts, but it does appear that he now has a chance to make the Spurs final roster.

Curry got his first championship ring with the Heat last season, but he generated no interest on the open market outside of a workout with the Nets. It would be quite entertaining to see Curry and Gregg Popovich endure an entire season together, but Curry will really have to show something special in camp to stick.

He's back after missing the last four due to a knee sprain. Curry does have a tougher spot for minutes with Devin Harris getting more run and Deron Williams playing some solid ball. Stephen's brother could be looking minutes around 20 in his first game back. He is worth a look in standard leagues, especially with the Mavs sliding in the standings.

Dirk Nowtizki (Achilles) will not suit up for Wednesday's game against the Kings.

Wednesday will be Nowtizki's sixth straight game on the sidelines, and Rick Carlisle hasn't given any clues regarding when we can expect Dirk to get back on the court, although with this season quickly turning into a lost cause for Dallas we'd speculate that he's doubtful for Friday's game against the Pacers. Dorian Finney-Smith will likely continue to start, but Dwight Powell is the guy you want to target.

Andrew Bogut (right knee bone bruise) said he could miss anywhere from 10 days to 3-4 weeks.

Bogut tends to be a slow healer, and he was initially given a 2-week timetable, so it's extremely unlikely we see him back on the court in 10 days, particularly with Dallas sitting on a 4-16 record. On the season, Bogut has only produced 14th round value in standard 9-cat leagues with averages of 3.8 points, 10.3 boards, 2.2 assists and 0.9 blocks per contest, so he's not really worth hanging onto in standard leagues. Dwight Powell should benefit most in Bogut's absence.
